Cm Gm
It seems like all the world is fighting

They're even talking of a war (ooo ooo ooo)

Let all the Russians and the Chinese

And the Spanish do their fighting

The sun is shining
G D G D
We're going drivin', drivin'
F Bb
Drop all your work
E A
Leave it behind
D G
Forget all your problems
C# F#
And get in my car
C# F#
And take a drive with me
F Bb
The sandwiches are packed

The tea is in the flask

We've plenty of beer

And gooseberry tarts

So take a drive with me

We'll take your mother if you want to

Forget your nephews and your cousins

And your brothers and your sisters

They'll never miss us

'Cos we'll be drivin', drivin'. drivin'. drivin'
F Bb
Thousands of trees
E A
Hundreds of fields
D G
Millions of birds
C# F#
So why don't you come
C# F#
And take a drive with me
F Bb
We'll talk to the cows
E A
And laugh at the sheep
D G
We'll lie in a field
C# F#
And we'll have a sleep
C# F#
So take a drive with me
Cm Gm
And all the troubled world around us
Bb F F7
Seems an eternity away (ooo ooo ooo)
F
And all the debt collectors, rent collectors
Bb
All will be behind us
D7
But they'll never find us
G D G D G D G D
'Cos we'll be drivin', drivin', drivin', drivin'
